Thanks. This is where it strays into the world of Windows that I'm not an
expert on.

Thanks and thanks for the urgent work to remedy this (I've seen the
announcement).


I think the only thing wrong with that post is that, on Windows 10 (possibly
Windows 8, too - but not Windows 7), I think it affects all browsers (not
just IE) as SmartScreen is implemented at the OS level, rather than as part
of Internet Explorer. Certainly it affects Chrome.

Thanks again,

- Bob
